Book Synopsis The Book of Potentially Catastrophic Science by : Sean Connolly
Download or read book The Book of Potentially Catastrophic Science written by Sean Connolly and published by Workman Publishing Company. This book was released on 2017-03-07 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It’s never been more important to engage a child's scientific curiosity, and Sean Connolly knows just how to do it—with lively, hands-on, seemingly "dangerous" experiments that pop, ooze, crash, and teach! Now, the author of The Book of Totally Irresponsible Science, takes it one step further: He leads kids through the history of science, and then creates amazing yet simple experiments that demonstrate key scientific principles. Tame fire just like a Neanderthal with the Fahrenheit 451 experiment. Round up all your friends and track the spread of "disease" using body glitter with an experiment inspired by Edward Jenner, the vaccination pioneer who's credited with saving more lives than any other person in history. Rediscover the wheel and axle with the ancient Sumerians, and perform an astounding experiment demonstrating the theory of angular momentum. Build a simple telescope—just like Galileo's—and find the four moons he discovered orbiting Jupiter (an act that helped land him in prison). Take a less potentially catastrophic approach to electricity than Ben Franklin did with the Lightning Mouth experiment. Re-create the Hadron Collider in a microwave with marshmallows, calculator, and a ruler—it won't jeopardize Earth with a simulated Big Bang, but will demonstrate the speed of light. And it's tasty! By letting kids stand on the shoulders of Aristotle, Newton, Einstein, the Wright brothers, Marie Curie, Darwin, Watson and Crick, and more, The Book of Potentially Catastrophic Science is an uncommonly engaging guide to science, and the great stories of the men and women behind the science.
Book Synopsis INTRODUCING UFOs by : Philip Mantle and Ronald Kinsella
Download or read book INTRODUCING UFOs written by Philip Mantle and Ronald Kinsella and published by . This book was released on 2020-06-15 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: INTRODUCING UFOs - A Young Person's GuideWritten by Philip Mantle and illustrated by Ronald Kinsella.The UFO subject as we know it came to the public's attention on June 24th 1947 when private pilot Kenneth Arnold, flying over the Cascade Mountains in the USA, witnessed a formation of objects that he could not identify. Speaking later to a journalist regarding the encounter, Arnold was asked how this formation of objects moved through the air, and his response was: "Like skipping a saucer across a pond." From that moment on, the coined phrase 'Flying Saucer' was born.Since that time, the UFO subject has been studied by a variety of military agencies, scientists and of course civilian run organisations. As a result, there are thousands of UFO books and magazines available, plus countless news items and documentaries on television, social media and of course online. Very few of these cater for a younger audience, so that is where our book 'INTRODUCING UFOs - A Young Person's Guide' steps in. I think the title says it all.In this book, we look at selected case histories from the 1940's onwards. These documentations are not meant to be in-depth, but rather to illustrate the case in as brief a way as possible, without missing any salient points. The case histories chosen for this book come from around the world and are accompanied by illustrations, documents, photographs and maps. Each chapter is split into decades and comes complete with its own piece of unique artwork. The book also provides an overview on what to do if you encounter a UFO and discusses, in brief, some of the many theories put forward to try and explain the phenomenon. This book is designed with a young adolescent audience in mind and comes complete with a photo section, with a series of authentic UFO photographs from around the world.The UFO phenomena shows no signs of disappearing, hence a book that we hope might help the next generation of researchers in their quest for answers.ABOUT THE AUTHOR AND ILLUSTRATOR: Ronald Kinsella (illustrator): Ronald Kinsella is an artist and author. He has written numerous books, including science fiction for the mainstream media, some of which are illustrated by him. He also jointly hosts a paranormal radio show, 'TWIN SOULS' along with his identical twin brother, which is part of a global network. He has also appeared on national television. Philip Mantle (author): Philip Mantle is a long-standing UFO researcher and author from the UK. He was formerly the Director of Investigations for the British UFO Research Association and the MUFON Representative for England. He is the founder of FLYING DISK PRESS.

He delivers many wry observations on how to choose a research topic, how to get along wih collaborators and older scientists and administrators, how (and how not) to present a scientific paper, and how to cope with culturally "superior" specialists in the arts and humanities.
Book Synopsis Comparative Perspectives on Inquiry-Based Science Education by : Bevins, Stuart
Download or read book Comparative Perspectives on Inquiry-Based Science Education written by Bevins, Stuart and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2019-03-15 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The core practice of professional scientists is inquiry, often referred to as research. If educators are to prepare students for a role in the professional scientific and technological community, exposing them to inquiry-based learning is essential. Despite this, inquiry-based teaching and learning (IBTL) remains relatively rare, possibly due to barriers that teachers face in deploying it or to a lack of belief in the teaching community that inquiry-based learning is effective. Comparative Perspectives on Inquiry-Based Science Education examines stories and experiences from members of an international science education project that delivered learning resources based around guided inquiry for students to a wide range of schools in 12 different countries in order to identify key themes that can provide useful insights for student learning, teacher support, and policy formulation at the continental level. The book provides case studies across these 12 different settings that enable readers to compare and contrast both practice and policy issues with their own contexts while accessing a cutting-edge model of professional development. It is designed for educators, instructional designers, administrators, principals, researchers, policymakers, practitioners, and students seeking current and relevant research on international education and education strategies for science courses.
